# Setting Up Lemon Squeezy Account

## **Step 1 - Create a Lemon Squeezy Account**

1. **Sign Up**: Visit [Lemon Squeezy](https://lemonsqueezy.com) and create an account if you don’t already have one.
2. **Dashboard Access**: After setting up your account, log in to access the Lemon Squeezy Dashboard.

## **Step 2 - Obtain Webhook Secret**

1. **Navigate to Webhooks**: In the Lemon Squeezy Dashboard, locate the **webhooks** section under your account settings.
2. **Create Webhook**:
   * Add a webhook URL to handle events (e.g., `https://yourdomain.com/api/webhook`).
   * Select the relevant events, such as `order_created`.
3. **Copy the Webhook Secret**: This secret is essential for signature verification.
4. **Add to Environment Variables**: In your project’s `.env` file, add:

   ```bash
   LEMONSQUEEZY_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your_webhook_secret
   ```

## **Step 3 - Enable Lemon Squeezy Integration with Feature Flags**

SSK-Pro allows you to toggle payment providers via feature flags. Set the Lemon Squeezy feature flag in your `.env` file to enable this integration.

```bash
FF_LEMON="true" # Enables Lemon Squeezy
FF_LEMON_SQUEEZY_AFFILIATES="true" # Enables Lemon Squeezy Affiliates
FF_STRIPE="false" # Disables Stripe if using Lemon Squeezy
```

For consistency and to prevent conflicts, only one payment provider (Stripe or Lemon Squeezy) should be enabled.
